[QUOTE="swshawaii, post: 878692, member: 67547"] The best and ONLY method of checking and inspecting a used vehicle is hiring a "trained" and "certified" technician. A VERY small price to pay that could save you big bucks and grief in the long run. There are NO guarantees with Carfax , Experian, AutoCheck, etc. Also NO "lemon laws" buying a used vehicle from a private party. I paid an all expense one day trip to a certified mechanic to fly to an outer island (Maui), to inspect the '05 XLS with 46K, that I own today. Worth the $675 "out of pocket" expense? Absolutely. Physically inspecting and test driving a car IS believing. Eddie, Tom, and (Psycareyo) could not have said it better. They have ALL "been there". CAVEAT EMPTOR, "Let the buyer beware". P.S.- Don't you guys love the "aftermarket" warranty companies proliferating the airwaves as of late. I.E.- US Fidelis, Direct Buy, etc. :unsure: BS [/QUOTE]
